Dear Aphrodite,
The Club met with Brendon Bolton this morning where he was informed that a change in the senior coaching position was in the best interests of the Carlton Football Club.
Poor on-field performances and results over a sustained period of time have reached the point where the Club was left with no choice but to make the difficult decision it has today.
Quite simply the lack of wins has fallen short of what our football club expects at this stage of its development. There was an expectation this season that we would start to see the benefits of that development however to this point that has not occurred to the level we expected and Carlton cannot afford to sit back and wait any longer.
While winning does not solely rely on one individual, the ultimate accountability sits with the senior coach.
Brendon has been an outstanding person for our football Club over the last three-and-a-half seasons.
There is no question he gave his heart and soul to the Navy Blue during that time. His care and commitment to Carlton is a testament to Brendon’s qualities not only as a coach but as a person.
We do have a responsibility to our members, fans and all stakeholders to do everything we can to improve on-field performance.
Assistant coach David Teague will take on the role of caretaker coach for the remainder of the 2019 season.
The Club will commence its search for a new senior coach, which will be done with a focus of continuing the progression of the Club’s overall strategy.
Having acquired four years’ worth of elite draft talent, development of that talent must now translate into significant on-field improvement and winning for the Carlton Football Club.
To be clear, our strategy does not change. Today is a measured step we needed to take as a football club in order to keep moving forward and will allow us to build on the work done over recent seasons.
While decisions such as today’s are difficult, they are necessary so that we can continue to progress towards our ultimate goal of winning premierships for our football club.
Regards,
Mark LoGiudice

Am I the only one who thinks the Log sucks?

Interesting pause from Liddle when asked about SOS' trade decisions
Any journalist going to ask a question about assistant coaches?
Like what? And what meaningful answers would you expect? We're already down one coach, the club is hardly going to go sacking a few more before the end of the season.
